A good manufacturing workshop layout can influence the profit of the manufacturing enterprises after the product coming on stream. Facility layout of workshop is a combinational optimization problem. The multi-objective optimization model which integrates the available problem of facility layout of workshop is established. Adaptive Genetic Algorithm is presented because of the disadvantage of simple Genetic Algorithm in solving this model. This algorithm use the adaptive crossover and mutation strategy which is used to nonlinear processing for crossover rate and mutation rate, then crossover rate and mutation rate are changed with the colony adaptation degree of each generation. It has some advantage, such as higher search speed, higher convergence precision, and so on. Finally an example is used to show the effectiveness of the method.

For the lack of crossover operation, from three aspects of crossover operation , systemically proposed one kind of improved Crossover operation of Genetic Algorithms, namely used a kind of new consistent Crossover Operator and determined which two individuals to be paired for crossover based on relevance index, which can enhance the algorithms global searching ability; Based on the concentrating degree of fitness, a kind of adaptive crossover probability can guarantee the population will not fall into a local optimal result. Simulation results show that: Compared with the traditional cross-adaptive genetic Algorithms and other adaptive genetic algorithm, the new algorithms convergence velocity and global searching ability are improved greatly, the average optimal results and the rate of converging to the optimal results are better.

Microgrid is one practical infrastructure to integrate Distributed Generations (DGs) and local loads. Its optimal operating strategy has aroused great attention in recent years. This paper mainly focuses on the multi-objective optimization of DGs in microgrid by using self-adaptive genetic algorithm (GA) and fuzzy decision. Five objective functions are taken into account comprising voltage offset, transmission loss, construction cost, purchase cost and the environmental cost. In the algorithm, self-adaptation in population size, mutation probability, selection and standardization of objective functions is developed to enhance the speed and efficiency of the algorithm. Moreover, fuzzy decision is applied to determine the final solution. Simulation results show this algorithm can effectively find the optimal solution and improve the real-time control of microgrid, which implies the possibility of potential applications in microgrid energy management system.
